The Walküre group battles the Var Syndrome that is consuming the galaxy, and there is also the mysterious Aerial Knights Valkyrie fighter team of the Kingdom of Wind. http://macross.wikia.com/wiki/Macross_%CE%94

The latest installment of Animedia magazine is revealing that the show is scheduled to debut on April 3rd, 2016 on Tokyo MX at 10:30pm local time. Obviously, we’re not expecting any kind of simulcast with this based on all the past issues with it, but we’re still excited to hear that new Macross is about to drop in Japan.

Freyja Wion The Girl (Stowaway )who wants to join Walküre The Tactial Miusic Unit and can sing their songs due to a gift ability not known yet! Hayate Immelmann the Fired Dock Worker rescies her and then fights with her!

well if we are to not expect a simulcast I guess that this is pretty forgettable series then.

This is why !!

Legal issues regarding Macross copyright

Harmony Gold, via its license of Robotech, claims to own the copyright in the US for images of mecha from the component series of the show, Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber MOSPEADA. They have pursued multiple lawsuits against anyone using mecha which even vaguely resemble these designs.
Most notably, many early designs used in Battletech, such as the Warhammer, Valkyrie, and Marauder, were licensed directly from the Japanese producers of Macross, with the overlapping rights mistake not being realized for nearly a decade. Harmony Gold sued FASA, and as a result these designs were removed from the game. Fan outcry over 'The Unseen' has led to multiple attempts to negotiate deals allowing for resumed use of the designs, but despite in one case a sourcebook going to press before being abruptly pulled, no deal has ever been reached. As a result of the failed negotiations, the producers of Battletech ruled that any designs not developed in house would no longer be used in order to avoid future issues.
Harmony Gold issued cease and desist orders against sites displaying images and trailers from the deceased video game MechWarrior, due to one of the mechs used in the trailer being a Warhammer.[16] The company claims that the images portray ’mechs that they own the rights to, according to a legal settlement from 1996.
The legal status of Harmony Gold's license to Macross is dubious. Harmony Gold’s license for Macross came from Tatsunoko Production, but Japanese courts ruled that it was Studio Nue (creators of the series) that controls the Macross intellectual property. The license Tatsunoko was given was for international distribution outside Japan only, and does not allow them to control the intellectual property.
Harmony Gold is known for making broad ranging claims on the Macross copyright and trademarks in order to extract payments from other companies. Harmony Gold claims in Federal Court that Hasbro's SDCC 2013 exclusive set "G.I. Joe vs Transformers The Epic Conclusion" violates their copyright license and trademarks on the animated Japanese Macross TV series (1982–84). On September 23, 2013, Harmony Gold's suit against Hasbro was dismissed, and Hasbro was allowed to continue to sell the sets

Dammit all. Will we ever be free of this...
This Harmony Gold bull started when I was an infant, and we're still getting shows denied THIRTY-THREE YEARS LATER.
The only full Macross release I can ever remember seeing was Frontier, and that was thanks to some brave souls posting fansubbed episodes on Youtube before the Google lockdown.
I'd love to see any of the Macross series here on Crunchy, but thanks to this ongoing idiocy apparently fans in the West can just whistle in the wind.
Anybody needs a drink, I'll pass one down.

Yeah harmony gold apparently has "big plans" for Robotech per the panel i sat in at otakon. Apparently some new series (which i am wonder if it's to rip off more Macross animation to use it as well as the Robotech movie and "new" merchandise.

There's also "deculture". That was apparently a thing in Macross Frontier, but stuffed if I can remember why.

" SEE YOU NEXT DECULTURE! " ,and they put that on every coming episode eyecatch. Zentraedi slang, man XD
Klan Klang's armored up rampage was also one of the most beautiful and righteous moments I've seen in a couple decades of anime. Fifty feet tall and every inch a literal Valkryie.
